I thought to myself, I never expected that the Japanese would infiltrate my country's consulate general.

The consulate only hired more than 10 Chinese people to do odd jobs, and two of them were disguised Japanese spies?

"Are you sure these two people are Japanese spies?"

Wood was somewhat incredulous.

After all, the consulate conducts strict identity checks on every Chinese person it hires, so something like this shouldn't happen.

"I can tell you 100 percent that they are indeed Japanese spies, otherwise where did those bugs come from?

In fact, you can arrest them immediately after you return and conduct investigation and interrogation."

Wood nodded and asked:

"May I ask where you got this information?"

"I have my own authoritative sources, which I cannot disclose. I am just an information dealer who makes money from this. I hope you understand.

In fact, what you should be more concerned about is why you have such a problem? "

Yuan Ye smiled.

I thought that maybe it was because your Commissioner Smith, who was in charge of intelligence security, got bribed and relaxed his review, allowing the Japanese to take advantage of the loophole.

Suddenly, a light bulb went off in his head and he had a bold idea that maybe he could have a chance to get more money from the British.

I just don’t know if the British will be fooled, let’s give it a try first and see.

So he went on to say:

"I can honestly tell you that I spent a lot of money on this. As for where I spent the money, I believe you should be able to guess."

Wood thought, is there any need to guess? He must have bribed the Japanese and had a Japanese insider who provided him with intelligence.

Wood said:

"Mr. Tom, I am very satisfied with this transaction and hope to continue our cooperation in the future. Can you tell me your contact information?"

"Mr. Wood, I also hope to continue our cooperation, but I have important matters to attend to and may have to go abroad for a while. As for when I will be back, it is hard to say.

Maybe it will take a year, maybe I won’t come back.”

Yuan Ye shrugged, looking very regretful.

"is it?"

Wood's eyes turned and an idea came to his mind. Since he was not sure whether to return to China, could he let him sell his intelligence source to him?

If he agrees to resell it, then they can continuously obtain more valuable intelligence from this source of intelligence.

Since he is an intelligence dealer, he might agree for the sake of money.

Yuan Ye heard his thoughts clearly and thought, the British had indeed taken the bait.

Wood smiled and said:

"Since Mr. Tom is going abroad and is not sure whether he will come back, I would like to make a deal with you before you leave. Are you willing?"

"How to trade?"

Yuan Ye asked with pretended curiosity.

"I am very interested in your source of intelligence. I know that you must have an insider in the Japanese, otherwise you would not have been able to obtain such valuable intelligence.

Once you go abroad and decide not to come back, this source of intelligence would be wasted, which would be a pity.

If you are willing, you can sell this source of intelligence to us, which will benefit both parties."

Yuan Ye pretended to think for a while and said:

"What you said makes sense. Okay, I agree to this deal, but I don't know how much Mr. Wood is willing to pay?"

"I'm willing to pay 10,000 pounds. What do you think of this price?"

Wood felt that the offer was not low.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Ye shook his head and said:

"Mr Wood, are you kidding?

I spent a lot of time, energy, and money to buy off this source of intelligence, and finally cultivated such a cash cow. You want to buy him for 10,000 pounds? That's too cheap, it's not even enough for my capital."

Yuan Ye has already regarded Ichiro Ozawa as a discarded pawn. This man does not know how to restrain himself and something will happen sooner or later. He already has a candidate to replace Ichiro Ozawa, so why not sell him to the British and make a profit?

As for what will happen next, he doesn't have to worry about it because it won't threaten his safety anyway.

Perhaps the British can still use Ichiro Ozawa for a while.

Yuan Ye could actually accept 10,000 pounds, but he felt that the British should not get it too cheaply.

Moreover, if we agree too readily, it will make the British feel uneasy.

“Mr. Tom, ten thousand pounds is a lot, I hope you can accept it.

If you don’t agree, you won’t get a penny.”

Wood was unwilling to give in and wanted to hold on to the price.

Yuan Ye smiled and said:

"Mr. Wood, why do you think so? Can't I sell it to the Americans, the French, or even the Russians? I think they will be interested too. They will definitely be willing to pay a higher price to buy this source of intelligence."

Wood thought, maybe it's possible, having an insider in the Japanese is a dream come true. The Americans, French, and Russians should be willing to buy it.

If I really have a falling out with Tom, it might be difficult to deal with.

Wood softened and said:

"The price is negotiable. So how much does Mr. Tom want?"

Yuan Ye said without hesitation:

"I want twenty thousand pounds, and I want it all paid tonight, because I'm leaving tomorrow.

As soon as I get the money, I will tell you how to contact him, and he will accept your instructions. You can give him corresponding rewards based on the value of the information he provides.

If you don’t agree, forget it.”

When Wood saw that the price had doubled and had to be paid in one lump sum, he was a little hesitant to make the decision. After all, it was not a small amount of money.

Seeing Yuan Ye's attitude, he knew there was no room for bargaining. He was a little hesitant for a moment.

Yuan Ye saw it all and heard it all, so he smiled calmly and said:

"You can call and discuss with your superior, Consul General Cole, or with Commissioner Smith who is in charge of intelligence security and is sitting not far behind me. I don't mind waiting. But I don't want to wait too long."

Wood was surprised to find Smith sitting not far away, wearing a hat and with his head lowered.

Smith originally planned to follow Tom personally after the transaction was completed, because he had received professional training as an agent and was a master at tracking, and he was confident that he would not be discovered by the target.

Unexpectedly, I was discovered by Tom before I even started tracking.

This Tom is really an amazing character.

Wood smiled awkwardly and said:

"Then please wait a moment. I will discuss it with Smith first."

After saying that, he stood up, walked towards Smith who was not far away, lowered his head and whispered to him for a while, and then the two of them walked out of the coffee shop.

The two men stood outside the house, and Wood told Smith the situation. Smith was also surprised and couldn't figure out how Tom found him.
